Community Garden Movement

The Community Garden Movement is a grassroots effort where local residents create and maintain shared green spaces for growing fruits, vegetables, flowers, and herbs. These gardens foster community connection, promote sustainable living, and improve urban environments by transforming vacant lots into vibrant, productive areas. Participants often include individuals, families, schools, and organizations, working together to enhance neighborhood aesthetics, support local food production, and provide educational opportunities about gardening and ecology. Overall, it empowers communities to take control of their spaces, encouraging environmental stewardship and social interaction.
